What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the chemicals that transmit impulses at synapses?
Neurotransmitters
What major mineral is required for transmission of nerve impulses?
neuro transmitter is essential for the transmission of nerve impulses in nerve fibres.it is a chemical which is present in the axon terminal bulb(ending of a neuron).
Do motor neurons send impulses to muscles or glands?
Motor neurons send impulses to muscles to stimulate muscle contraction. Glands are typically innervated by autonomic neurons that regulate secretions like hormones and enzymes.
What provides for the transmission of nerve impulses way from the cell body?
'Axons'
Which Mineral is necessary for transmission of nerve impulses in the nerve fibers?
Zinc
What are chemicals that retard behavior by either speeding up or slowing down nerve impulses?
Chemicals that retard behavior by affecting nerve impulses can include depressants like alcohol, benzodiazepines, and barbiturates, which slow down nerve impulses. Stimulants like amphetamines and cocaine can speed up nerve impulses. These substances can alter brain function and behavior by modulating neurotransmitters in the brain.
Providing a pathway for the transmission of nerve impulses is the responsibility of the?
peripheral nerve system
Why is the transmission of nerve impulses often referred to as an electrochemical event?
Myogenic conduction
What is one dietary factor that affects synaptic transmission of nerve impulses?
vitamen b12
Impulses are conducted rapidly if is present?
Myelin sheath. It is a fatty layer that surrounds the axon of a neuron and helps to speed up the transmission of electrical impulses along the neuron.
What cell type is responsible for the transmission of elecrochemical impulses?
Neurons are the cell type responsible for the transmission of electrochemical impulses within the nervous system. These specialized cells are capable of transmitting signals through electrical and chemical processes along their axons.
What stops the transmission of pain impulses to the brain and spinal cord by preventing the perception of pain?
Non-narcotic analgesics work to stop the transmission of pain impulses by preventing the perception of pain. In low dosages, these drugs are available at drug stores without a prescription.
